This privately owned 18th-century hideaway is perfectly positioned halfway between the historic cities of Seville and Jerez de la Frontera.
The Hacienda de San Rafael itself is in the middle of the countryside, surrounded by charming, well-tended gardens with cool shady areas and pools. You may choose to relax and unwind with a good book and a cool glass of wine or take some days to explore and enjoy the wealth of natural beauty and culture that can be found in this corner of Andalucia. The choice is yours.
Going south-east from the Hacienda, you will reach the dramatic coastline of the Atlantic and the Costa de la Luz, with miles of sandy, wild beaches. From Tarifa you can take a boat trip to see dolphins and pilot whales and, at certain times of the year, the migrating killer, sperm and fin whales.
